  I have 4 large fir trees located on either side of my gate on Ruckamore Road, 3 on one side and one on the other side. For some years now the single tree has not appeared to be as healthy as the others, having lost a lot of its foliage. I understand, from neighbours that the tree is about 60 years old. Last week-end one of the trunks was blown down in the high winds. Fortunately, it fell in the road at such an angle that it did not damage any of the parked cars or injure anyone. Lucky too that it did not fall towards the house as it is tall enough to have come into contact with it. I have managed to cut up the wood that was blocking the pavement and moved it onto my drive prior to disposal. I am fearful that strong winds may cause this to happen again, maybe with more severe consequences, and would like your approval to have what remains of the tree taken down.
